Although dismemberment is not the most common abortion method, it is easily the least humane since it inflicts unspeakable physical pain on the unborn prior to death.

As with the sex-selection anti-abortion bill that our legislature considered in 2013 we support this measure because it illuminates the awful lengths which some in our society are willing to go to deny life to the innocent. At the same time it brings into sharp focus the barbaric nature of all abortions.
